Ingredients

Servings: 4
  • 6 TABLESPOONS Milk
  • 50 g Butter
  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 100 g Flour
  • 2 Eggs (Gr. M)
  • 500 g Strawberries
  • 2 TABLESPOONS Strawberry fruit spread (without pieces and pips)
  • 250 g Whipped cream
  • 1 pck. Vanilla sugar
  • 4 TABLESPOONS Vanilla liqueur (e.g. Licor 43)
  • 2-3 TEASPOONS Icing sugar
  • 7-10 Tbsp Baking Powder

Directions

  1. 1

    For the choux pastry, boil milk with 7 tablespoons of water, butter and 1 pinch of salt in a pot. Add the flour at once and stir with a wooden spoon until a white layer forms at the bottom of the pot and the dough comes off the bottom as a dumpling. Put the dough into a bowl and immediately stir in 1 egg, let it cool down for about 10 minutes. Then stir the rest of the egg into the dough until a smooth mixture is formed.

  2. 2

    For the cream puffs, fill the dough into a piping bag with a large star-shaped spout. Spray 8 small tuffs onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake in a hot oven (electric cooker: 225 °C/circulating air: 200 °C/gas: see manufacturer) for 20-25 minutes. Remove, cut open immediately with scissors and allow to cool.

  3. 3

    Wash, clean and quarter the strawberries. Mix with the fruit spread, let it stand for about 1 hour. Whip the cream until stiff and allow the vanilla sugar to trickle in. Stir in liqueur.

  4. 4

    Fill vanilla cream into a piping bag with a large star-shaped spout and fill cream puffs with it. Put the lid on top. Dust with icing sugar. Serve with strawberry salad.

  5. 5

    Cut open the cream puffs immediately after baking. This allows the moisture to escape and the pastry remains crispy.
